Mr Tugboat Hello Lyrics - Singles - Sophie B. Hawkins

You won't be strong for me, I'm sure 

Oh, how could I have lost my heart 

To one so insecure 

Desire hard to resist 

But for whom I exist 

Love, I give my eyes to read your signs 

No compromise your faith is mine 

I don't despise the endless time 

It takes to realize that I am just a fool 

Though you were cruel 

To show me paradise so soon 

I don't know why, I hardly care 

Happy disillusions fade 

When passion's in the air 

Fire, water and salt 

Madness inspired pain 

Let it remain my fault 

Hate me for a while, I saw you cheat 

It's not my style to break the heat 

Murder is vile and death is sweet 

I have to smile at my defeat 

Yes, I'm insane though just the same 

You must have recognized my name, ooh 

Mr. Tugboat hello, ocean liner 

Finer day, no ma'am 

Ooh, and I have no plans 

Just to do as I please 

Back to the breeze 

Of sailing around my island 

Everybody's outside 

Love has arrived 

I wanna be your friend 

Living it up together baby 

Give me up, I'll drive you crazy 

Can't find me baby, so climb 

The story's true, I can't deny 

First thing I was born to see 

Was mama cry 

Raspberries and wine, boxing gloves 

Train stations and valentines 

Paris, I'm in debt, I can't come home 

My lips are wet, I hate the phone 

J'ai un regrette et mes chansons 

I bumped my head while you were gone 

You thought for you, as though for two
